    Becci Ellis took me with a 235mph run to take the win. Wheel spin was a big problem for both of us. Tyre was spinning up in 4th with 21psi boost at 9000rpm. 250mph is getting closer

    Had a quick trip to Elvington yesterday. Had 7 or 8 * 215mph plus runs but this was my new Pb and got me 2nd place

    Michelin power 1 got some special on order for next year that Becci Ellis and her husband Mick are using. Michelins again but being trialled for the 270mph targets. Using the 55 profile too

    And hopefully a fair bit more after that. Thanks for support though it's good to have those who understand and recognise the bug within the blood we share , to chase higher numbers as possible in lesser times as is possible and leave our mark in a difficult hobby

    I had just travelled across sea and land to get to the place plus spent entry money and I knew it was a one shot do it or bust run. It was a wild ride I'll tell you that what with wheelies and a bit of head shake in first four gears but then it settles down and you lean to one side to keep going...

    The bike was a new build so this year has been my learning curve. My first and only run was in May. It was windy as usual from the side and it had just started raining. But 1 run was all I knew I had to bang a 200+Mph run in and I did it

    To be honest it's no big deal as the bike tracks straight it just looks and sounds like clutch slip the revs whip up and as long as it doesn't step out which it shouldn't as I say you ride through it but it slows you down dramatically as the push against the air is more intense

    Thanks guys we are all of the same mind and aim. I still want to go faster in three disciplines 1/8 mile currently 6.4s @131mph aim to be in 5secs next year 1/4 9.49@151mph should be in 7.9 or 8.1 sec@170 180mph bracket and target is 250mph in standing mile but that may be a two year deal

    Got 4 runs in that day all over 200mph. Sighting run to check bike set up was ok was a 202mph then a 210 and then the 214.889. Final run I gave it a little more boost but suffered from wheel spin and missed gears with a 201mph
